I would. It looks like it's in pretty good condition.

I paid $950 for one in similar shape last month in Colorado. DO IT!

I got the last one but was trying to get more from Canada. He was going through a divorce so he was a bit preoccupied. I'll see if I can find his info. He owns a construction company near Boulder.

I paid the same in Alberta. Price is OK IMOP. As these are in new condition. Mine was spotless, only a couple specs of rust and the tires still had hairs on them.

Buy it, they are very limited things to find in new condition.

He will drop the trailer to my place for 750 this weekend...not bad..

Buy it. These things get less common by the month, and aren't getting any cheaper.

It is in the garage i'll post up better pictures.

For the interested mind. Here are more pictures. 12V leds are installed and he gave me the 24V replacements. And the miliary connector (obviously that i will not use). paint has some scratch and a bit of rust. But overall good shape. Paint seems to be a thick layer of hard epoxy not too resistant to impact. Should i sandblast that thing down to bare metal or hand sand it and recoat it? Tires are in good shape

You got a great deal on that one,, before you blast it,, decide if you will be cutting and/or welding on it.. If you'll be modding the body its best to do that first then blast and paint. If there isn't really any rust might skip the blast and sand and paint. I'd use an air sander tho,, easier on the hands and shoulders..
